Beau Smith: "We plan to release a new beta version every two weeks until the app is stable. Once stable, we'll be creating release candidates. And we're hoping to offer a stable build in mid November."

Split-​​tests are nor­mally based on two dif­fer­ent ver­sions of one ad. That's why they're often called "A/​B Split Tests" (or "A/​B Split Runs"). The object is to deter­mine which ad - either ver­sion "A" or "B" of a saleslet­ter, for exam­ple - pulls the great­est response.

You may have heard some breaking news that PayPal will be the first and only global payments platform open to third-party developers.

It looks like PayPal is rolling out a more flexible payments API called Adaptive Payments.
In what PayPal calls "Chained Payments", developers can create applications that enable a sender to send a single payment to a primary receiver who may keep part of the payment and pay other, secondary receivers with the remainder of the funds.

Adaptive Payments will also offer "Parallel Payments", which would let a sender send a single payment to multiple receivers. An example of this type of application might be a shopping cart that lets a buyer pay for items from several merchants with one payment.
